The Jade Bloom Secret Realm had completely sealed shut, and the sky seemed to grow several shades darker.
Above a certain stretch of land, people packed the air. One powerful Tiangang Disha Guard after another floated around Qin Shaoyang at the center.
They were all waiting for Qin Shaoyang's orders.
Now that the secret realm had sealed, Qin Shaoyang, this powerful Zhou Tian Core Disciple, had completely become their direct superior.
"I never expected such a change. You could originally have left safely, but now you must wait within the secret realm."
Qin Shaoyang's calm voice rang out, echoing beside every person's ears.
The faint pride in his words was not concealed in the slightest.
Yet none of the Tiangang Disha Guards felt the slightest resentment.
They looked at Qin Shaoyang and spoke in unison, "We shall follow Senior Brother Qin's orders in all things."
Qin Shaoyang's cultivation was naturally not the highest.
But in the Azure Cloud Realm, whoever was stronger was the senior brother.
Moreover, Qin Shaoyang's identity and status were there for all to see. Calling him Senior Brother was entirely justified, and they did so willingly and sincerely.
Qin Shaoyang nodded. "Then proceed in your respective squads to search for and capture Lin Xuan. The Twelve Tiangang and Twelve Disha must not be more than a hundred li apart."
"The moment you see Lin Xuan, immediately send word. I will link you with Zhou Tian Power. Once battle erupts, I will certainly arrive at once."
"Lin Xuan—I will suppress and kill him!"
All the Tiangang Disha Guards turned solemn. They bowed slightly toward Qin Shaoyang and answered in unison, "Yes, we shall obey Senior Brother's decree."
"Mm!"
Qin Shaoyang nodded, greatly enjoying the feeling of issuing commands.
With a sweep of his hand, he spoke again.
